As the Morrigan Sings

I dreamed a strange dream last night, I was singing this song

I was playing it with long lost friends in a land of mourning

And pale was the sun in the mountains and the vision it struck my heart

A pile of heads and the yellow sun shining their eyes

Chorus:

There were heads a' rollin'

There were heads a' rollin'

There were heads a' rollin'

Bodyless heads of fright

There were heads of innocent people that died in the wars

There were heads of patriotic soldiers all covered with scars

There were so many heads on that mountain top that I couldn't count them all

And as the Morrigan was singing they were cutting some more

Chorus

Me and my band were a part of that strange celebration

And we were playing so loud that the ravens could hear our intentions

And as the daylight rose there were heads as fas as the eye could see

They were rolling, my love, they were rolling for you and for me

Chorus

The people were singing this song with great exhultation

It seemed that some ancient curse had been interrupted

And the crowds were dancing so wildly that I could hear them bones a' shakin'

And the band was formed by dead people that played so vividly

Chorus

The song ended up when a gigantic tornado came

But the vision stood in my eyes as I went away

The visions of men and of women dancing merrily the dance of death

And I woke up with the voice of the drummer inside of my head

Chorus
